Big Bend photos: What a vacation! Big Bend is absolutely gorgeous! Underneath are photos of the National Park, if you're interested.

It was a cool 85°F in the heat of the day (very atypical for far

southern Texas in midsummer). And ...we had a bear visitor!Of all the places I've been, this is one of the most beautiful,and desolate. Thanks again for your kind words, andpatience while I was away :) -Ed aka ETHICS

Thanks for sharing these. That suspended bolder is amazing. Compliments on your good eye to catch the sun centered on the mountain peak.. Any info on the rock painting? I guess it was either done by native Americans hundreds of years ago or by some dude last April. :-D Either way, those are some beautiful views. Pretty much as I remembered; stark, desolate and yes, gorgeous. Glad we still have places like this to get away to. Oh, thanks for the Getz too!

Ha we were thinking the same thing about the rock art; that it might be recent. However, checking with a park Ranger, it is legit. We're to sure about the age of it, but the whole ational Park is littered with them. Quite beautiful and cool to see
